Is the game really going to have a GCD system?

I don't know if this was posted or talked about, but in all the videos I seen there is a GCD on the battle system, this to me seems boring, you click a ability and wait, then click same ability and wait some more. I really don't see the reasoning for the whole GCD mechanic. I would like to see longer CDs on spells.

All MMOs have a "GCD system" to some extent, because limiting certain actions to once every few seconds (typically the shortest amount of time they could be executed anyway) drastically eases the strain on the servers. This is a technical feature for performance, not a gameplay decision to make things boring.

But if you look at the latest alpha video, it sure doesn't look like anyone is sitting around waiting to me...
